Hi everyone, I’m Joacim from Wellington, FL. I’m a serial entrepreneur getting started in real estate, looking for my first property to fix and flip or rent out. Ideally under $300k in South Florida, but open to other areas.
I have time to put in the work and would love to connect with investor-friendly agents, lenders, contractors, and experienced investors. If you have a property that might fit or experience helping beginners get their first deal done, let’s connect!
Hey Joacim, welcome. On the money side, decide early whether this first one is a flip or a hold, because it changes the loan. A flip usually goes on a short term fix and flip or hard money loan that can cover part of the rehab. A rental can go on a DSCR loan, which is based on the property's rent instead of your personal income. If you're not sure yet, a lot of people buy with a short term loan and then refi into a DSCR once it's fixed and rented.
Before you start making offers, get pre-approved for the route you pick so sellers take you seriously and you know your real max price. I do investor lending and work with a lot of first time flippers and buy and hold investors, so I'm happy to walk through what you'd need for this first deal. Give me a call, my number's in my signature below.
